This vibrant abstract piece plays with a variety of textured and the contrast between yellow and blue. Hayter has a strong auction history selling in the high hundreds.
Stanley William Hayter is legendary for his technical innovations in printmaking. Introduced to Surrealism in Paris Hayter became associated with the movement drawing violent imagery from the horrors of the Spanish Civil War and the rise of Fascism. During WWII his style moved towards abstract expressionism with the influence of Jackson Pollock clearly being seen in this work. This coincided with his perfection of a revolutionary technique for multi colour printing on a single plate. His works can be found in major collections such as MoMA and the Tate.
